Due to the weapon's history, it can only be used in [[multiplayer]], and appears as a default spawn on several multiplayer maps. It can be equipped and used in first-person view as with all other weapons in the game, and supports the player throwing grenades with it equipped or using it to [[melee]]. The weapon's range is similar to the shotgun, which is only effective at close-quarters. When fired within range, the flamethrower deals lethal damage to unshielded opponents. Against shielded opponents, it will remove their shields and apply a substantial amount of damage to the opponent's health. | Due to the weapon's history, it can only be used in [[multiplayer]], and appears as a default spawn on several multiplayer maps.
